Peter is writer-in-residence for a fifth time in Big Sur, California, from June to August. Whilst in Big Sur, he will work on a requested book on poetry from an American academic publisher.

The Welsh Government and The British Council (Wales) are to produce an internet app version of the DYLAN THOMAS WALKING TOUR OF GREENWICH VILLAGE, NEW YORK for the DT100 celebrations in New York in 2014. It will be based on the original self-guided tour, which was written by Peter and Aeronwy Thomas.

A tourist pocket-book version of the WALKING TOUR by Peter and Aeronwy, which will include such rarities as a drawing of Dylan by Caitlin and an unpublished photo of David Slivka's and Ibram Lassaw's death mask of Dylan in the making, will be published in January 2014.

With a foreword by Hannah Ellis, the granddaughter of Dylan Thomas, the book will be the centrepiece of a New York visit by the First Minister of Wales and other dignitaries in February 2014, when they will be guided on the actual Walking Tour by Peter and Hannah as part of the DT100 launch in America.

The book will also be launched at Poets House, New York, in early March, organised by Stanley H. Barkan, Peter's American publisher, and in several other American states during 2014, including Boston and California.

Peter has researched and prepared a DYLAN THOMAS TRAIL OF QUOTATIONS for the National Waterfront Museum, Swansea. The Trail will be a part of the popular museum's celebrations of DT100 in 2014. The museum will also display some portraits of Dylan Thomas and other materials when the Trail has its July opening.

The Welsh launch of the DYLAN THOMAS WALKING TOUR OF GREENWICH VILLAGE tourist pocket-book will take place at the museum in May, when Peter will also give a talk entitled Dylan Thomas in New York.

A new poem by Peter, LAMENT FOR SOLDIERS OF THE FIRST WORLD WAR, is to be used in a short film about the First World War. The film, based on the 'Christmas truce' between British and German soldiers, is being made by Franco De Marco and will be a contribution to the First World War Centenary in 2014.

Peter has been invited to the NEMLA Conference in Harrisburg, Pennsylania, USA, in April 2014.

He will also participate in the launch of BRIDGING THE WATERS, a bilingual (English/Korean) and international anthology of poetry at Poets House, New York
